This question was popularized by Rolf Gordon from England. I consider him a modern day pioneer, having dedicated the past few decades educating people about a condition known as Geopathic Stress. It is a phenomenon many people are not aware of, yet it affects everyone to varying degrees.

SO WHAT IS GEOPATHIC STRESS (GS)?Let’s start with a simple vocabulary review: Geo- refers to the earth, while pathic refers to suffering or disease. In combination with stress, geopathic refers to any type of noxious energies, natural or man-made, that over time may cause health challenges for humans, plants, and animals under its influence. In addition, inanimate objects are also subjected to its powerful force. Very few things can avoid being affected.

NOXIOUS ENERGIES AND ZONES OF DISTURBANCE: WHAT ARE THESE?Here we are referring to any subtle energy that will create havoc on the immune system of many living organisms when placed within its field for prolonged periods of time. Note- some organisms thrives in these zones.

GS is the catchall term that refers to concentrations of both natural and man-made energies. They are typically found over or related to underground streams, certain pockets of minerals, fault lines, underground cavities, mines, pipelines, and vortexes. One way to illustrate this is to picture an underground stream of water, say 200ft down, meandering through the soil, all the while attracting energy above it as it flows. This results in an invisible river of destructive energy, usually 10% as wide as the stream is deep; in this case, a swath roughly 20ft wide.

With our rapid technological advancements today, we are contributing enormously to the amount of GS in our environment. This occurs as a result of the electro-magnetic fields caused by electrical and wireless sources. The short list includes such things as: man’s over use of electricity, bleeding wires, appliances, lighting, computers, TV, cell phones, transformers, power lines, generators, and all our wireless gizmos and gadgets.

Depending on the source, these energies can vary in intensity, direction, and form. Some are regularly spaced grid patterns, where others may be more random in width and structure. Experts estimate that 5% of the earth is covered by them. As one would think, areas of energy intersections are especially troublesome.

WHAT KIND OF HEALTH CHALLENGES ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?GS does not directly create health challenges. Rather, it works on depressing the immune system, when a living organism finds itself sitting, working, or sleeping in an area that is geopathically stressed for several hours at a time, on a continual basis.For example, if there is a line of GS flowing through your bedroom at the location of your bed, in particular, where you are sleeping, you can assume you are NOT SLEEPING in a safe place. Chances are high you are not sleeping well at all. Even more likely, the exact position where the line of GS crosses your body may be the exact location where you are experiencing health problems.

Now each person is very different, that is why we are called individuals. Some people are more sensitive and easily affected, others may seem to remain totally unaffected, and still others fall somewhere in between the two extremes. When someone is ill and has tried a number of different approaches to healing without success, then it may be time to examine the concept of geopathic stress as a contributing factor. Those who seem to heal, then have a reoccurrence , also should take time to examine this as a possibility.

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF GS?Geopathic stress it leaves it’s calling card for all to see. Once you are familiar with some of the warning indicators, the assessment can be fairly simple to determine if your home or business is affected. Good dowsing and observation skills help with this process as well. Below is a list of signs and symptoms commonly associated with GS.

Environmental Clues :

problems with mold in the house

moss growing on the roof, walls, or lawn

problems with termites, ants, wasps, or bees

cracks in walls, driveways, paving stones, curbs, and roads

reoccurring mechanical and electrical breakdowns

areas with high rates of accidents

presence of trees with cancer

gaps in hedges rows or shrubs

infertile fruit trees

strangely twisted trees

areas where nothing will grow, or where growth is stunted or mutated

areas susceptible to lightening strikes

Personal/ Health Related Clues:

someone in the home has a serious health challenge, such as cancer or MS

illness which does not clear up despite good treatment

feel better when away from the home

became ill shortly after moving into the house

live in a house which has never “felt right”

wake up in the morning feeling unrefreshed, or have difficulty sleeping

close neighbors may be in poor health

previous owners of the home have been ill

WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP?If you suspect geopathic stress is creating a disturbing influence at your home or business, what should you do next? Look further into the subject! This article is just scratching the surface with the intention of opening doors of awareness. There are many indepth websites and books devoted to this area of study. Also several dowsing societies will have experienced dowsers who work with the detection and remediation of geopathic stress using specialized techniques, and can recommend competent individuals to assist you.

DON'T WAIT UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE TO FIND A SAFE SPACE!

My husband and I are dowsers who have been doing energy clearing work for the past few years on properties. We have encountered a variety of interesting cases. In most situations, the homeowners were experiencing some level of personal difficulties. Examples include insomnia, asthma, high concentrations of EMFs, cancers, uncomfortable energy within the home, difficulties with interpersonal relationships among family members, repeated mechanical and electrical breakdowns, inability to sell a home, and multiple chemical sensitivities. Once a property is assessed through dowsing, the locations where geopathic stress is found is then remediated using the best selected technique for that particular situation. Often within an hour or two, the energy in the home shifted, and the property owners recognized the improvement.

Dr. Becker, M.D., author of the "Body Electric" and "Cross Currents" and one of the most respected research scientists in this area, stated, "We now live in a sea of electromagnetic radiation that we cannot sense and that never before existed on this earth. New evidence suggests that this massive amount of radiation may be producing stress, disease and other harmful effects all over the world by interfering with the most basic levels of brain function."

So now is the time to take a pro-active position. Educate yourself. Learn what you can. Share what you learn with others. Don't wait until it is to late to find out you have not been sleeping in a safe place.

Hi Chris...thanks for stopping by...it is amazing the stuff that can be affected by geopathic stress. My husband and I have worked on so many houses/ properties to help remediate GS conditions... often because the property owners have someone in the house w/ compromised health that hasn't responded to regular treatment.

Because there is so much info in this category, I am starting a separate blog to intro this topic.
